There is no objection to reciting the Qur’an while sitting on chairs in the mosque or elsewhere, for the elderly and others, in accordance with the Almighty’s saying: “Those who remember Allah while standing, and sitting, and on their sides, and contemplate the creation of the heavens and the earth, [saying], ‘Our Lord, You have not created this in vain; exalted are You [above imperfection], then protect us from the punishment of the Fire.’”
